Zone Card

Prev Next

Zone cards are similar to device cards, they organize and summarize data for the selected zone.

Initial Window

The zone card can be broken down into three sections: zone details, sensor graph, and additional information.

The zone details section will not have soil texture, years, vine clone, and rootstock clone, initially. The NDVI data will appear in the zone card shortly after demarking the AOI and zone.

Graph

This section graphically displays all sensors connected to this zone. Sensors can range from soil moisture and electronic conductance to system pressure and flow. The user can select manually the range displayed and the centered data .

Click on the box icon beside Graph to fullscreen the graph output .

Graph data can be downloaded via . Click Zoom Y to auto adjust the y-axis. The y-axis can display multiple units based on which sensors are connected - view the options along the leftside of the graph.

Edit Zone

The additional information section is located below the graph section. This modal can be accessed by the user in Edit Zone.

In this modal, you can add many details about your crops, soil, and irrigation setup. Currently, the modal labels are targeted towards grapevines, but many of the categories translate simply to other crops (varietal, year, etc.). Crop details such as varietal, year planted, clones (vines or scion clone and root or rootstock) can be added to track water usage by crop details in the Irrigation Report. Once entered, these crop details will appear above the graph section as pictured above.

Soil details such as soil compostion at depth allow the user to track and log site details, better interpret soil moisture, electronic conductivity profiles, and NDVI data, and make data-driven decisions for irrigation scheduling (soil water capacity, inflitration rates, etc.). Once entered, the top soil zone (0”) details will appear above the graph section as pictured above.

Irrigation setup details such as zone-assigned pump, block pressure, flow rate, emitter spacing, emitter flow rate, tubing length, and default relative duration. The pump, pressure, and flow rate help assigned block wide metrics to the zone. The emitter spacing, emitter flow rate, and tubing length help estimate block level flow rates based on row level metrics. The default relative duration is the default zone offset (or TIP) applied when setting irrigation schedules. See the help for further details on how to use this modal.
